But this isn’t just limited to island life. In Amsterdam I can’t watch my favorite US shows legally until months or years later. I just don’t accept that crap anymore. Either content providers join this century, or they can go ahead and die like the dinosaurs they are.

Sun, 15 Jan 2012 14:33:12 +0000http://underwa.ter.net/?p=515#comment-2350I too would gladly pay for music / tv / movies etc. However typically I am unable to register or pay due to my location. I was really hoping when amazon started doing on demand things that as they were already used to international selling they would be able to handle it.unfortunately being US based they can’t sell any content to users outside the USA.
Itunes, there is a Cayman iStore now .. the ability to register as if in the Cayman Islands exists .. our Phone company cells iphones .. so things happened. However when you go to sign up for that account you can’t finalise the sign up as it won’t accept a Cayman bank card. So I am forced to register with a USA address (I use apples own) and then buy gift cards for credit .. which I am also charged 20% duty on when bought on island. It also restricts me from buying anything but apps.

So due to this being a similar story for all online content which I can legally purchase I am forced to download illegally, or wait 2 – 6 weeks for delivery of physical disks and pay duty.
I have no problem with the duty but the usually 6 weeks or more is an issue.
I also VPN to the UK and USA to watch Hulu and BBC iPLayer etc so that I can watch my favourite TV shows when I want to. I do not pay for a TV license but I do pay for the VPN. The BBC is said to be finally rolling out international access to iplayer and I hope to be able to simply pay my money and have access to it. I am doubting it will be that simple and so am fully expecting to have to keep my VPN.
So is island life.

(ps local myth says no copyright laws here in Cayman but that’s rubbish, as we don’t have our own we revert to the UK’s which adheres to the European laws.
